You water down the sidewalks in front of your house on a freezing night and sit inside your house and watch the people walk by and fall on their bums on your iced sidewalks and they get hurt?

Yes, you could be sued. Even if you don't put the ice there yourself and someone falls and gets hurt you could be sued for not properly maintaining your property. Same with a raised crack in the sidewalk.
Where I live we get fined for not shoveling and keeping passage ways clear.

Yes big time, if they can prove that you water the sidewalk.

Yes, if you create a hazard you are liable for the results of that action.
